Saint IQ

He's good at dribbling and used to be good at passing...A centre back he is not.

Play Slattery Sims and Targett for sure. -----------------Gunn------------------- ------Bednerek-Yoshida-Bertrand----- Valery--Slattery--Hojbjerg--Targett ------Sims-----Ings------Redmond--

Think we had a lot more chances than them to be honest just bad finishing and bad final ball. Good game though and both teams had chances but think we dominated most of it bar the last 10 minutes.

Hope someone will take him off us he is a complete liability this season.

If we signed players as good as those 3 and maybe a centre back with pace to play with Bednerek we would be some force

All the big guns want Pepe will go for over £50m

Hughes was terrible, hardly won any games team could never hold onto a lead and picked Mr Hoedt every game. Whereas Pellegrino could hardly get us into a lead let alone hold on to one.

This.

I reckon we will either lose or draw the next 2 then draw or win to Newcastle and win the last 4! Hopefully get well over 40 points

Pretty much impossible, I have local friends that are Liverpool fans but are registered on the database and to be fair they do go to the odd saints game when not playing Liverpool. Expect there are many fans that do that with other big 6 teams too. If we score they will be easy to spot in the crowd

We signed Mane and Alderweireld on deadline day 2014.....

Very interesting if it was true but I highly doubt transfers are "pretty much sorted" firstly because we are't even close to being completely safe from relegation yet and secondly that would mean we have already "sorted" some sales to lower the wage bill which I highly doubt has been achieved already.

Is it arrogance simply stating I think we have more quality than them therefore it should come through? What is a "modern" saints fan? I've been supporting since the mid 90s. Never said It'd be easy in fact i implied the opposite. If Redmond gets puts in a 9/10 performance and everyone else is a 7 or 8 we win this game.

How is Gallagher on only 5k less than JWP and how is Jack Stephens on more than JWP. Absolutely crazy

Then Viafara... Can we make it a 4th with Lovren getting done for doping

A full season under him would return 57 points! That's with losing to Cardiff home and away so room for improvement. I hope he's with us for a few years. When we employed him I always said that we should keep him even if we did go down. Now we need an owner to match his qualities and everything would be hunky-dory

Very good value if we beat them. Can only see 33/1 atm

Good commentator and pundit like many of the ones put on the football league games and analysis. Then you have people like Andy Hinchcliffe (Terrible) getting the on the premier league games

Champions League last 8 ex saints 11 3-4-3 ------------Gazzaniga------------- -----Lovren---VVD---Toby------- Caceres----Ox--Wanyama----Shaw ----Lallana---Mane---Tadic Manager- Pochettino

But as you say he did that years ago, it's the manager that has helped him get to this level, by telling him to be much more aggressive. There was an article very early on in Ralphs reign where he said something along the lines of that which someone could find. He has some limitations so he needs to maximise all he has got. Adding that aggression into his game has helped him win more 50/50s and get into the box in front of defenders to score rebounds. Also the great freekicks have gone in and not hit the bar or been saved recently which is one of his strengths finally coming to fruition. Good stuff.

No football matches to play for 3 weeks and 1st week is Cheltenham week. Charlie living the dream.

We should have too much quality for them but we all know it's never that simple

To be honest I don't think Gunn is ready to play for England yet, squad maybe. I'd go for Heaton as number 1 at this point in time even after the errors this weekend.

Austin is due a goal, has been playing better ie actually holding up the ball and bringing others into play. Come on Chaz!

Last year of contract, he gave us 4 years and wanted a dream move to play for titles and in the champions league we let him as otherwise he would leave for nothing this summer. Are people so thick to realise this before posting I am chuffed to bits for him and every other saints fan should be to.
